Description
Swan Farmhouse is a house dating from the mid-18th century, with an early 19th-century extension and a 20th-century porch. It is constructed of squared tooled stone with ashlar dressings, and the porch features rock-faced stone. The roof is made of Welsh slate. The building is two storeys high and has three symmetrical bays. It has a plinth and rusticated quoins. The central flat-roofed porch includes a slit window and a four-panel door with a two-pane overlight on the right side. The original doorway is set within an architrave. On either side of the porch are 12-pane sash windows, and above are 16-pane sashes, all featuring thick glazing bars and set in architraves. The eaves cornice is bold and hollow-chamfered. The gables are coped, and there are stepped-and-corniced stacks at the ends.
To the left, there is a single-storey, two-bay extension with 12-pane sash windows, and the left gable is coped with a stepped-and-banded stack. The left return, above the extension, features a 6-pane Yorkshire sash in the attic. The right return has 12-pane sash windows that were rebuilt around 1960. There is a lower 18th-century wing at the rear, and a brick addition at the back of the 19th-century extension is not considered of special interest.
